Product Description
-Bone-strengthening calcium your body recognizes as food-With AlgaeCal, a proprietary plant source of calciumEvidence suggests that calcium from whole food sources may produce more favorable effects in bone health than isolated calcium supplements. Similar to most nutrients, the body can utilize calcium much more effectively when it is paired with its natural co-factors such as magnesium and other trace minerals.New Chapter is proud to deliver a calcium complex derived from whole food that delivers these key essential nutrients in their safest, most active form within the infinite complexity of whole food.The most common form of calcium supplement today is derived from limestone. You don't eat rocks as part of your balanced diet, why would you choose to supplement your bone health nutritional needs with limestone?Our bodies understand and seek whole food sources of nutrition, not rocks, which is why New Chapter formulated this product with a whole food plant source of this important nutrient complex. As whole food, it's easy on the digestive system.The calcium complex in Bone Strength Take Care is derived from a special form of plant called Algas Calcareas (AlgaeCal) that is harvested from the pristine shores of a protected national reserve park in South America. Much like the vegetables from an organic garden, the algae is harvested live and then cold processed to retain its nutritional value.Calcium must be completely dissolved in order to be absorbed. The plant-based calcium found in Bone Strength Take Care is porous, which dramatically increases the calcium's surface area. Stomach acid can then come into greater contact with the calcium, making it easy to dissolve.In addition to the whole-food source of calcium and magnesium, we have also added other bone-nourishing nutrients to complete the food complex.* Picture may be of different size or flavor |

Contains soy and other fillers by akm  1 Stars
October 13, 2009
After reading about the toxic properties of soy in "Tragedy & Hype: The Third International Soy Symposium," I would not use this product because it contains fermented soy. I am looking for a calcium capsule with one ingredient - algas calcareas sp.

easy to use - not sure of the results by Harold Harefoot (Tucson, AZ United States)  3 Stars
October 04, 2009
I've only been taking this for a couple of weeks, so I have no basis for commenting on the efficacy of the product - whether it works, or not. I will say that it's easy to take and convenient. It is, however, expensive for the number of daily dosages you get in a bottle. If you can find a way to get this at a discount, it would probably be worth it.

Calcium from food rather than citrate by Deborah S. Hall (Rochester, New York United States) 3 Stars
September 23, 2009
The selling proposition of this supplement is that your body will be able to better utilize its calcium rather than the calcium you usually get (calcium citrate) because it is made from algae -- a living substance, a food, rather than rocks. I really just don't know whether this premise has much merit. Our bodies need all kinds of trace minerals such as copper, selenium and strontium, that don't exist as "food" per se.
My bottle contained 60 pills but only 20 servings as one must take three pills to get: only 685 mg of calcium! (Granted they also contain 1000 D). So I will still need to take additional (probably non-food) calcium every day to get up to the recommendtion of about 1200-1500 for women my age.
The pills are fine but cost way too much for what you get. Somebody's marketing wet dream.

great product - poor shipping by jayne  4 Stars
July 07, 2009
This is a great choice for supporting good bone health and supplementing calcium/magnesium intake because it is made from whole plant foods, live-harvested from a protected environment, a source that makes it much easier for the body to process and absorb. I have ordered this item many times and had to deduct a star because the last two shipments were packed so poorly that the bottle cap was cracked and many of the tablets were broken in several bottles. A little more effort please to get these to customers without damage. Red Tag Sale has always shipped promptly, though, and their prices sure beat anything I can pick up locally.

Best calcium supplement by Roberta Lemon (los alamitos, ca United States)  5 Stars
April 20, 2009
I was diagnosed with osteopenia 1 year ago and was really worried. I researched many different products and found this one to have ALL the ingredients recommended for women in my condition. I took five a day and watched what I ate and I was recently tested and have stabilized. I HIGHLY recommend this product.
